This is a must see in Grand Marais. It is one of the most well-curated shops I've seen and Kristofer is the coolest human to work with. Recently moved into a new home in CO and was visiting, and walked away with some excellent pieces to weave the North Shore into mountain living. Thanks team, you guys rock!

I have always loved stopping into this shop when I’m up in Grand Marais, but this year I got to bring my 1.5 year old with me for the first time and my husband and I can’t stop talking about how adorable our experience was. We have a veryyyy friendly child, and Kristofer could not have been sweeter or more hilarious with him. While I got to try on pants (which I very happily purchased) my son had a hilarious chat with Kristofer who helped entertain him the whole time. Of course all of the products in this store are very high quality and so well curated, but the customer service is what really swept me off my feet this time. Thanks Kristofer for being so kind and welcoming to our lil guy — can’t wait to come in with him for many years to come! ❤️

Visiting Grand Marais downtown for the first time and it is a nice, quaint town, good for walking around. Upstate is an amazingly modern store that was a surprise in the great North MN. It has handmade gifts, gorgeous attire, beautiful decor, and smells wonderful. I was very impressed. The staff were very friendly, kind, and welcoming. I will for sure return when I drive through this city!

This is truly an amazing store. I spent a long time wandering throughout the store, touching so many things displayed there, and wishing I could purchase pretty much everything! It wasn’t just the quality of the products, but the overall feel of the space that made me fall in love. I wish I lived close enough to visit regularly, but I am so happy that I can purchase gifts online for all of the special people in my world.

What a great experience!! This is what shopping small business is all about! Kristofer is always excited to see new and returning customers and you truly feel welcome. There are always new items being added and the selection is awesome! If you're looking for a gift (for others or yourself) you should be able to find something here. If not, you'll at least enjoy a great look around and feeling like they are truly glad you stopped in. We try and stop by anytime we are in the area (6+ hr drive.) It's definitely one of our favorite shops! Incredible place and owner!!

Beautiful & thoughtfully curated items. I always find a treasure here. It's my favorite place to buy earrings and I LOVE earrings. The owner is very talented, sweet, and obviously has a very discerning eye. And any place that let's me shop with my doggo gets an A+ from me!!!
